Chapter 349 Open Secret, Reporting the Itinerary
Next to the street in the camp, soldiers stood on both sides, looking at the troop carrier that was about to leave, and saluted in unison.
All the soldiers in the battalion were bidding farewell to the veterans.
Chen Jun stood by the road. He looked at the soldiers who were reluctant to leave each other and climbed onto the vehicles. He turned slightly sideways and did not want to look anymore.
Although I didn’t stay in the first battalion for a long time, we are all comrades in arms and get along with each other every day. So many familiar faces have to leave.
The reluctance is for sure.
Old He next to him touched his belly and let out a sigh of relief.
Although He Yingtao had been an instructor for a period of time before, he had been a company commander for much longer.
This is a fierce mention of instructors, who have been paying attention to the demobilization work of such a large battalion since the beginning.
When it comes to pressure, Lao He really deserves to be at the top.
For more than half a month, I really didn't dare to relax at all.
But it will be better next time.
The military region takes great care of their battalion to prevent their retirement from affecting the normal work of the battalion.
Today we are scheduled to retire and leave the camp, and tomorrow we will hold a promotion ceremony.
And this time, it was also the last time the battalion was collectively promoted or conferred a title. The privileges given to the battalion as pilots were almost followed by this promotion.
It's coming to an end.
There will no longer be a pilot camp, let alone such a great privilege.
He Yingtao took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to Chen Jun: "Old Chen, it's time to retire from the army. Is it time to prepare for work tomorrow?"
"Nothing to prepare. "
Chen Jun squatted on the ground to take the cigarette, and then nuzzled his mouth in the direction of the vehicle and artillery field: "There will be no training this morning, and each company will start promoting the promotion in the afternoon."
"The whole battalion comes out to clean the camp area, and the publicity must be in place."
"Look at which squad leaders have resigned, and arrange new squad leaders to take over as soon as possible. If there are not enough people, recruit from the tank company, artillery company, and armor company subordinates Draw from within the infantry platoon."
"Then each company holds a meeting and lets experienced veterans come on stage to share their experience as squad leaders."
"Go and get some quotas for outstanding non-commissioned officers in the brigade. Or awards or something, it’s exciting.”
“The promotion will be held at the vehicle and artillery field tomorrow. Arrange the comrades who will be promoted and prepare together.”
"Okay, this is easy."
He Yingtao replied, he lifted his trousers like a big bear, squatted next to Chen Jun and puffed away.
It wasn't until he finished smoking a cigarette that Lao He stretched out his arm to touch Chen Jun, squeezed his fat face and said with a smile: "Lao Chen, is it time to see my father-in-law?"
Um? ! !
When Chen Jun heard Lao He asking, he was stunned for a moment. He didn’t seem to have mentioned this in the camp, right?
"How do you know?"
"Hey! How do I know."
He Yingtao curled his lips when he heard this: "You should ask the entire group army how many people don't know."
"There has been a lot of buzz in the brigade these past two days. Not only do I know that you are going to see my father-in-law, but I also know that the political commissar has prepared a lot of good things for you."
Holy shit! ! !
Chen Jun was really shocked this time.
Recently he has been busy with the matter of retiring from the army, and he has been to the brigade frequently, but he has never heard anyone mention this matter.
No one asked him.
Looking at Chen Jun's fuss, He Yingtao bared his big yellow teeth, took out a thousand yuan from his pocket, and stuffed it directly into Chen Jun's hand.
"Don't blame me for being unloyal. It's your fault. I really can't help you, and I can't get you any good things."
"Just treat me as a casual member of the family with this little money. You have to understand me. I have a wife and children to support, and my monthly living is very tight. This thousand is still my own food ration money."
"Damn it, I'm going to smoke with Lao Ma this month."
"What the hell are you doing!!!"
As soon as He Yingtao finished speaking, Ma Hongjie came over from a distance. , taking advantage of Chen Jun's daze, Lao Ma took the thousand in his hand and counted it.
Then he gave it back to Chen Jun. He also took out the money from his pockets and collected eight hundred from four pockets.
"Old Chen, I didn't bring enough money today. I owe you two hundred. The eight hundred will go with you first, and I will make up for it when I get my salary."
After saying that, Ma Hongjie also put all his pockets He dug it out and shook it twice in front of He Yingtao.
"Are you still interested? I'm even poorer than you, and I can't even afford cigarettes."
"Stop!"
"Wait first Wait!”
Chen Jun felt a little numb when he saw the so-called "money" being stuffed into his hand.
“No, who told you that I should go see my father-in-law?”
“No, I should go see my father-in-law, but even so, it’s not right to just follow the ceremony now, right? The horoscope is not that good yet.”
“Keep it.”
Old God He Yingtao took a breath. Maybe it was because the fat man couldn’t squat on the ground, so he took a breath. Then he said: "Because of your sense of confidentiality, I'm afraid we won't receive the letter next time we have children."
"Old Chen, come on, I'll support you with my spirit."
Lao He stood up and patted Chen Jun on the shoulder. He clenched his fists and put on a cheering attitude, then stood up and left gracefully. .
Ma Hongjie watched the instructors leave. He also imitated Lao He’s behavior just now and patted Chen Jun on the shoulder.
"Old Chen, I can't help you with this, but I have heard a saying, no matter what difficulties we encounter, don't be afraid."
"Smiling Facing it, the best way to eliminate difficulties is to face them head-on. Come on, Lao Chen.”
After saying that, Lao Ma turned and left.
Chen Jun was left alone squatting on the ground, confused, what the hell, where is this song coming from?
Coincidentally, the two of them had just left.
Chief Staff Officer Liang Diaomao was passing by. He turned to look at Chen Jun squatting on the side of the road, holding a large amount of cash in his hand.
Looking at the instructor and deputy battalion commander who had not gone far, Liang Kexiang raised his hand and slapped his forehead with a "pop", muttering: "Damn, I almost forgot about business."< br>
With that said, he also walked up to Chen Jun, took the money in his hand and counted it.
After counting, Lao Liang curled his lips, "Fuck, nine hundred for each person?"
"Old Chen, I will take one thousand with you. Do you know that you have to be humble when you go to my father-in-law's house?" ”
“Remember, when we go to someone’s house, we must have something interesting in mind. When you go there, check the time. If you go in the morning, then go there at eleven o’clock.”
“This way, it’s not a meal, and you can find an excuse to leave after eating. You don’t have to stay too long to be embarrassed. If you don’t go in the afternoon, usually everyone in the family will be together for dinner, and you can’t stay overnight if you just go. ”
"I'll drive you away. It's not appropriate. You have to be discerning. This is my experience, do you understand?"
Seeing that Lao Liang also started to pay, Chen Jun couldn't bear it anymore. Unable to hold on any longer, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Liang Kexiang, forcing him to squat on the curb next to him.
Then, Chen Jun stared at Liang Kexiang very seriously and asked: "Stop talking nonsense, you are still a bachelor yourself, and you still teach me your experience?"
" Tell the truth, how did you know that I was going to marry my father-in-law?”
“Who told me about this?”
Chen Jun was really confused. He must have never spread the word, let alone Li Haiyao.
As a lesbian, it is even more impossible for her to tell everyone that she wants to go to her house, right?
"Who passed this on? I first heard it from Xiao Li, and then everyone said so."
Liang Kexiang spread his hands, and from the look in this kid's eyes, he couldn't help but feel It's hard to see, it seems like this is really just a common thing.
Everyone knows it.
"Which Xiao Li?"
Chen Jun asked hurriedly.
"It's the squad deputy of the second squadron of the tank company. I saw him just now."
Liang Kexiang ignored Chen Jun's doubts and took out the cash from his pocket alone. , handed it to Chen Jun: "I also accepted the gift." "It's probably not very exciting to be a guest at the chief's home, but I believe you can do it."
"Come on!!"
Three people in a row came over to help him, which directly confused Chen Jun himself.
He always felt a little weird about this matter.
It felt like the whole camp knew that he was going to the woman's house.
But he didn’t know what the whole camp already knew.
All discussions seemed to bypass him.
This made Chen Jun scratch his head. After stopping for a moment, he turned around and returned to the camp headquarters.
When he arrived at the office, Chen Jun casually put the money on his desk, planning to take some time to question the three guys just now.
But right now, he has more important things to do.
The promotion meeting to be held tomorrow will be much grander than the last time the camp was first formed.
More people attended the meeting.
Starting from him as the battalion commander, it also includes the instructor and deputy battalion.
Armored company, tank company newly appointed company commander, deputy company, instructor.
Two company commanders were brought to the camp, and a series of tasks in that company had to be carried out.
In addition, each company has strong capabilities and is not older than the previous year. Veterans who have achieved third-class merit twice at the end of the year will also be promoted to second lieutenant, starting from the grassroots platoon leader.
Even because the current situation is too special, there are many places for promotion.
Anyone who does not meet the two third-class merit scores can apply.
After all, the meaning is different. The last promotion was to reserve enough cadres for the whole battalion.
This time, it is to prepare for the upcoming big move of the whole brigade.
The above will definitely not let such a big hole go without any reason,
Chen Jun was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel in the battalion. The instructor and the deputy battalion were promoted to major. The notice of promotion had already arrived in the battalion.
Such a big ceremony.
It was still the day after he was discharged from the battalion. He, the battalion commander, would definitely not be able to stay idle.
As for the matter of going to my father-in-law's house...
It was purely an accident that everyone in the camp knew about it.
How could Chen Jun guess the twists and turns? Even if he asked He Yingtao, it would be useless.
Lao He himself couldn’t tell where the news spread.
The news exploded so fast that it even spread among the cadres at the division, brigade or battalion level of the entire army group.
As for the reason, it’s not complicated.
The reason is that Xu Wensheng, political commissar of the 179th brigade, has something to do recently. He always brings his private "Four Treasures of the Study" to talk to the military political commissar.
The intention is obvious to ask for tea.
It’s not that we, Political Commissar Xu, don’t have interesting things in his hands, but mainly his things are not suitable for Chen Jun to carry.
The four treasures of the study, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, it is too unconventional for Chen Jun to bring these things to the house at his age.
So, Lao Xu simply thought about the tea secretly hidden by the military political commissar.
That guy keeps talking twice a day.
There is a saying that the political commissar's mouth carries a million soldiers in his chest.
Perak Bara can say that he can do it all day without stopping. It is not an exaggeration to say that he can win a thousand miles and open his mouth like a cannon.
The tea leaves that the military political commissar usually has are all treasures. Who doesn’t know the number one in each unit in the military?
But who can be lucky enough to enjoy it?
Every time I smell it twice through the jar, I will be scolded because it affects the aroma of the tea.
Hey!
It was such a precious thing, but in the end Xu Wensheng had to replace it with two cans.
Tea itself is not very attractive. It is a good thing, but not everyone likes it.
What everyone is most curious about is why Lao Xu made such a big investment.
With what kind of ability, he was able to exchange things from the hoarding rat.
After asking around for a while, I found out that Chen Jun's matter was not a secret in itself.
The 179th Brigade has attracted more attention because of the pilot. Now that their brigade has made such a big move, it has naturally spread among the various leaders.
It’s just that due to some reasons, when it reaches the ears of people in the following units, the versions are different, but only one thing is consistent.
That is Battalion Commander Chen from the pilot camp, who is going to his father-in-law’s house.
Chen Jun is busy organizing tomorrow's work in the office.
After the soldiers in the battalion sent off the veterans, they began to be urged by the company commanders to take off their ribbons, and began to transfer personnel from the infantry platoon to supplement the missing personnel of each company.
Anyway, the infantry platoon had a large number of people, and Chen Jun took these issues into consideration in his allocation at the time.
First, infantry is easy to train and spread on the battlefield. With the current individual firepower, the destructive power coupled with the coordination of tanks is no less than the firepower of a tank at close range.
Second, while infantry is easy to train, after staying in the camp for a long time, they are familiar with the operations of each company and the specific firepower tasks they are responsible for.
Get started as quickly as possible.
For example, this time, nearly a hundred non-commissioned officers were retired from the battalion, but the infantry platoon could easily make up for their vacant positions.
Anyway, in the recruit training center, there are still a group of new soldiers who are looking forward to the next company, screaming and growing up.
If we can make up for it in time, we will assign them to the infantry platoon.
As I said before, infantry is easy to train. Chen Jun’s arrangement will have a much lower impact on all aspects of the battalion.
Afternoon.
The soldiers in the camp began to clean the entire camp area. The streets were still covered with clean water and the roads were paved with loess.
Although the slogan is to prepare for tomorrow's promotion meeting and welcome the leader, the actual situation is known to each company commander.
It is necessary to take advantage of this general cleaning to gather all the soldiers to work together, and organize a class meeting in the evening to get to know each other.
This is used to offset the impact of retirement.
While the camp was in full swing, no one noticed that Li Haiyao was walking around the camp alone, listening to the soldiers discussing the news of tomorrow's award.
She silently returned to the dormitory and took out her mobile phone from her bag, maybe she was a little nervous.
It may be that she doesn't know how to speak about this matter.
In short, Li Haiyao held the phone in her hand for a long time before she made up her mind to open the address book and flip to the column with the note "Brother".
Broadcasted.
“Yao Yao?!”
After dialing the number, a slightly surprised voice came from the other side.
“Well, brother, it’s me.”
“I, I’m going home tomorrow.”
“One person or two people?”
The person who answered the phone seemed to know something and asked calmly.
"Two, two people."
"Okay, I understand. Let me know what time it is tomorrow so I can have someone pick you up."
"Okay, thank you brother!! ”
After thanking Li Haiyao, he quickly hung up the phone and put the phone on the bed.
The gesture seemed to be that he was afraid that the person opposite would ask more questions.
